October Nail Challenge

Alright, it will be October tomorrow and as promised here is a glance at our nail art challenge for the month. Are you ready? I can't wait to see what others come up with, so remember to share what you did! (links to facebook, instagram etc.. or just add the picture in the comments below)

     I did not come up with this I came across it  when I googled and searched under photos. I liked this one because it wasn't an every day thing. I didn't think I wanted to try changing my nail polish every day for 31 days. Have fun with this, see you tomorrow for day one!
 I find I have more readers on wordpress so you will find these HERE .

Up and Coming Challenge

    I have seen over the past year or so many challenges for the beauty world. I had decided on giving it a try myself. Once I decided that I would be going with nail polish/art I had to chose what month, how many days, weeks or months long to make. I ended up going with the Halloween theme and oh man is October fast approaching. I had hoped by the time it came around to doing the challenge that I would have me followers to be active in sharing what they came up with. I will NOT let this stop me however, as I do love o paint my nails. It is the main "girly" thing I like to do. If your interested me follow, share and feel welcome to comment. I will be back on the first to share!

Nail of The Day

update: 9/19   just noticed the price has been knocked down on these!!!


I have seen all those fingernail stick on polish’s and have wanted to try them out. However, paying $10 for a one time use just didn’t seem worth it.
     Well one day as I was scrolling along on ebay I came across some for $3.99. Not only did they look similar to the sally hansen and essie brands but hey the cost was way less! I didn't buy them right away because i still wasn't sure if id like them. After about a weeks worth of consideration I decided to order some.
   Yesterday I was so excited to get them in the mail! I love them so far. They have bling! The greenish colored stones do stick out so hey, I match my bling cell phone case

  The process was so much faster and easier than painting my nails with polish and waiting hours for it to completely dry. Why hadn’t I tried this concept out sooner? Oh ya right, the price! Glad I found some cheap ones. Anywho, all you do is clean your nails really well, match the size of the sticker to your nails and press them on. Then bend whats left hanging off your nail over the tip of your nail and file off, its that simple. Now the true test is….will they last a long time before chipping or pealing off? Guess ill check back in, in a few days to let you know. If you have used sally, essie or any other brand of nail stickers let me know how you liked or disliked them.

Girly Day

      During the summer vacation do you find yourself spending  some girl time with your little ones?


    Today was spent with my eight year old doing our hair, putting makeup on and of course who can forget to paint their nails! :)

We used Sally hansen Insta-dri in Presto Pink and Silver Sweep

OPI Nicole Razzle Dazzler (black) I think opi is my favorite brand so far. That may change when my julep package arrives and I get to try the polish out for the first time.

Top coat was wet and wild shine

  I have to say I usually do not care for Sally hansens cheap polish but the insta-Dri's go on smoothly, no smears or bubbles and I think it has to do with how wide the brush is, it covers more area with less swipes.
